3D Gridding:

3D Volume Render & Isosurfaces

Video Description:

With Surfer you can visualize a 3D Grid in the 3D View as a volume render or isosurface. Visualize a 3D grid as a rendered volume with full control of the color and transparency, where the color represents the C value, such as contaminant concentration.

Then add an isosurface to determine exactly where specific C values are in a 3D grid. Helping you delineate specific areas such as plume extents or mineralization cutoffs.

2D Map from a 3D Grid:

Video Description:

Immediately see how a map changes with depth/elevation through a 3D grid. Create a 2D map of a slice through the 3D grid, and use a slider to move the slice up and down through the 3D grid. The map updates immediately as you move the slider.

For example, create a contour map of a 3D grid of GPR data, move the slider and see how the GPR data (and the contours) change through the grid file with depth.

A 3D grid can be created either by gridding XYZC data in Surfer or in another software package. Supported 3D grid formats include VTK and HDF.
